Hi, so I currently have an interview coming up. The interview will apparently include an essay for which there will be a 30 minute time limit. I am a student who has been diagnosed with ADHD and when it comes to taking tests, writing essays and what-not, I am provided with accommodations that allow me to have extended time.
I am worried that I will have trouble concentrating during the essay and that I will end up running out of time before I am able to finish it. Basically, I am wondering if people here think I should inform my interviewers about my normal accommodations and whether or not I should request extended time for the essay? I know that discrimination on such a matter is normally not allowed, but I am still worried that my interviewers might look at it somewhat negatively (or as an unfair advantage) if I request extended time. What are your opinions?
Thank you.
